Patch 4.2: Craftables

We thought we'd wrap the week up with a post about all of the crafted items that are available in patch 4.2. Since it's only ten days away, there's a lot of ground to cover. Overall, most professions will be happy to see a lot of lucrative items to craft are in this patch--from PvP to PvP gear, to glyphs, and even a scope!

Right now, we're unable to confirm where some of the epic recipes are dropping. We suspect the ones that are ilevel 378 are from the instance themselves and we can confirm the 365 ones are from the vendors. It's worth noting though that when we downed a boss last week, there were no patterns tied to its loot table, so it may just be from trash.

Regardless of their source, however, since the recipes are BoE they will be widely available to any type of crafters. It will be a lot like the BoE recipes from Black Temple or Hyjal Summit.

Update: The ilvl 339 rare-quality PvP recipes available on live for Blacksmithing, Leatherworking, and Tailoring are no longer obtainable on the 4.2 PTR. They have been upgraded to ilvl 358 Bloodthirsty PvP recipes (instead of two separate sets of PvP gear). This means that crafters who have already obtained the ilvl 339 recipes on live will find that they have automatically upgraded to the ilvl 358 recipes. So, if you've already collected the PvP recipes, you'll have nothing new to purchase; if you haven't bought anything yet, there's only one tier of PvP recipes to collect, not two, in the patch.

I am deeply disappointed that JC gets no PVE items. Where are our epic rings and BOE trinkets? Totally lame.

Did anyone notice that Ashelia said it would be coming next week? I've seen several theories, but nothing official. Anyway, I won't be back on for at least another month, so it probably doesn't matter to me.

But to stay on topic, lots of good stuff. I bet their going to cost me an arm and a leg since I don't have any other high level crafters in my repertoire.

engi gets 2 items. lame. and no replacement to the soon to be defunct headpiece. i understand why blizzard doesnt want to give engineers a BiS headpiece item for each tier, but something other than a gun and a scope would have been nice.

Haste on the only two-handed STR weapon... predictable. Haste isn't all there is, Blizz. Is crit, like, impossible to add to something? Sheesh. Make some people reforge for their haste for once. Doooooooo it.

I like the gem & mining bags, though. Also, lf DPS STR-based JC-crafted neck item. They finally gave us a ring but have yet to produce on the other.

At least dwarves get a gun again. But with bows in raids, i'll have to stack up on the mats and get the gun.

Brb, buying up all the volatile fire in the AH.

Edit: Wooo. 30,000g. Sure hope that works. >.<

I'm not sure if my eyes were playing tricks on me, but when I logged in last night after they first posted the 4.2 banner on the launcher I followed the link. Reading through the page it had said after "Prepare yourself for war. Coming June 28th". That's a tuesday, which makes sense. Again, I could be wrong.....

Glad my JC will have some new things to craft, even if they are all PVP.

So far, I calculate that my tailor alt will need at least 425 Marks of the World Tree to access the vendor for the gem bag. Which by one person's calculations in the comments on that page puts me at 25 days of full daily grinding on that alt.

Ouch. In the same boat here on both accounts.

You must be a Blacksmith. =)

I hope you sell quickly though! The Molten Front has quite a few elementals in it... who like to drop a certain fiery volatile.

Will Chaos Orbs become unbound in 4.2? I only heard some time ago that it would happen "in a future patch".
